A born and bred Texan, Creed Fisher has been unapologetically bringing old country back since his arrival to the music scene in 2016. As a self-proclaimed country music rebel, Fisher’s musical equation is relatively simple—good stories plus good riffs equal great music.

10. If You Have the Right to Burn My Flag
One message that comes across heavily in Creed Fisher’s music is patriotism.

9. Where the Whiskey Still Flows
No doubt that whiskey is a favorite subject matter in hundreds of country songs.

It’s the kind that you can have on repeat and never tire of. It’s sweet, memorable, and truly touching.
7. Old Enough to Know Better
As the lead single to Creed Fisher’s second full album, Old Enough to Know Better brings a lot of personality and fun. While Fisher’s music is largely categorized as old country, you’ll hear a welcome drive of honkey tonk in this song. There’s no other way to describe it other than infectious. It’s no wonder the song was voted Single of the Year in 1994 by both the Country Music Association and the Academy of Country Music.
